More books!

A visit to Savidge Reads Towers to deliver birthday books yesterday resulted in my coming away with almost as many as I brought around! Apart from I am the Messenger by Marcus Zusak which I had delivered for my next book group, all the others were bequeathed by my lovely bookish friend. I am very excited about reading Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit after finishing Jeanette Winterson’s The Passion yesterday and totally loving it.

You’re so lucky to have a friend who loves books as much as you do! I have to make do with boring my friends to death with bookish geekiness. Thanks goodness for the internet where there are loads of me :O

I tried Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit a few months back, it having come highly recommended by so many other bloggers. Winterson’s writing is definitely original, but I did have trouble getting in to the book and ultimately set it aside. Meet Jack Rosenblum is on my TBR list, so I’ll be interested to hear what you think!

Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit! What a book! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. What a great little pile you received! I just finished The Book Thief and will have to add another Zusak to my TBR list, since I loved, loved, loved The Book Thief. Perhaps I’ll wait to read your review of I Am The Messenger. Cheers!!

Glad you liked the treats hee hee, I am only sorry that I promised The Slap to my Gran (the book not an actual slap hee hee) as you could ahev had that too! Oh how excited am I about the first of the books you brought round… more on them tomorrow at mine.
